Twist Surface

Used to twist a B-spline surface, or a mesh element, about a defined axis.

You can access this tool from the following:

  • Ribbon: Modeling > Surfaces > Modify Surfaces
  • Toolbox: Modify B-spline Surfaces

Note: Increasing the number of control points will yield smoother results.



SettingDescription
Fixed Twist Angle If on, sets the angle that the surface is twisted about the defined axis.
Infinite If on the surface will be twisted beyond the length of the axis or below the starting point of the defined axis.
